“That's right . Please let our children do their homework by your side so that they will not fool around or play dangerous games . ” During the seven days of holiday for the National Day last year, their child insisted on learning to cycle from his classmates and master drifting .
And what was the final outcome?
He had a bad fall and broke his leg . His leg had to be encased in plaster and it took a few months before he recovered .
The parents were more than willing to spend money for their children to study at the Qiao family's residence rather than spend it at the hospital . At least, their son would not be in pain .
Shi Qing touched her chin, deep in thought . She did not lack money, but it seemed to be easy money .
If Qiao Nan had no intention to conduct the class, she could be Teacher Xiao Shi and conduct classes during the seven days of the National Day holiday .
Qiao Nan was not really eager to conduct a class, but the parents were very persistent . They crowded around her such that she could not even get close to her house . “Well, why not let me think about it? During the summer break, it was my first time to conduct classes . All of you must have known that I did not take in a large number of students . Therefore, I have to consider whether to conduct a class . I have to think about how many students to take in . How should I select the students so that it will be fair to everyone? There are so many of you here, while there are only seven days of holiday . I can only have one class in this short period of time . ”
Qiao Nan decided to come up with an excuse to dismiss the parents . Otherwise, she would never be able to get inside her house .
“You are right . ” The parents agreed . It was true that many parents had the same idea as them—to ask Qiao Nan to tutor their children . Hence, it was better to leave first for Qiao Nan to think it through . “Teacher Xiao Qiao, the National Day is a week away . You have to let us know as soon as possible . ”
All the parents could not bear to leave Qiao Nan's house . They turned back several times on their way back . They were hoping that Qiao Nan would be softhearted and decided to agree to their request right away .
“Hey, I finally reach the doorway of your house . It is too tiring . ” Shi Qing let out a long sigh . She was about to enter the house when she noticed that there were fruits, health supplements, and a chicken outside the door .
The old hen flapped its wings around the courtyard of the Qiao family's residence . Shi Qing could not help but laugh at it .
“Qiao Nan, you don't have to buy any food or fruits . ” Shi Qing bent down to take one of the apples and took a big bite unabashedly .
Qiao Dongliang was in a difficult position . “Nan Nan, I refused to accept their kind intentions, so they left them on the ground . I intended to give it back to them, but they have all left . ” Since Nan Nan had accepted the food, did it mean that she had to start a class during the short break for the National Day?
Qiao Dongliang was full of regrets . Had he known things would turn out to be like this, he would not have agreed to let Qiao Nan conduct classes during the summer break .
He did not care that those students would be sitting for their middle school examination or college entrance examination . What was important was that Nan Nan's studies must not be affected .
“Nan Nan, listen to me . You are still young . You are a student, and your most important task is to study hard . As a father, I will be responsible for making money . Don't worry . I promise you that I will be able to pay for your college tuition fees . If you are interested in making money, you can wait until you graduate . By then, you will have the time and opportunity to earn money . Right now, you just need to do a good job, studying hard and maintaining your standard . ”
“Dad, you can rest assured that if I really start a class, I know what I am doing . It will not affect my studies . ”
She had been through rebirth . It was impossible for her to lose herself in making money . Initially, she was worried that Qiao Dongliang would be affected . Now, she realized that she did not need to worry about that .
“It's better if you don't hold any more classes . ” Qiao Dongliang waved his hands again and again . If this continued, Nan Nan would not have enough time for her studies . “Nan Nan, you have to consider carefully . Once you hold a class during the seven days of the National Day holiday, you will have to do so during the winter break as well . You will be sitting for your college entrance examination in the coming summer break . Nothing is more important than the college entrance examination . Do you understand?”
“I understand . Dad, let's go in . If we don't enter the house now, Shi Qing will eat all the food . ” Shi Qing would not stand on ceremony with them . She did not care that all the food was given by the parents . She was such a foodie and a glutton . She would eat anything that was edible .
Qiao Dongliang jumped up anxiously . “Shi Qing, don't eat it all in one go . How can you behave in such a manner? You are a young lady . If you have all the food, your body will not be able to take it!”
If Tang Mengran was the funny girl at school, Shi Qing would be coined the foodie .
In fact, aside from Shi Qing, her father, Shi Peng, was a foodie as well .
Otherwise, both of them would not be coming to the Qiao family's residence for meals .
Qiao Dongliang was worried that Shi Qing would stuff herself with food and get a stomachache .
Shi Qing was about to reach for another fruit when she was stopped by Qiao Dongliang . Shi Qing looked at the fruits that were before her yet out of her reach . She was dying to have more of them . “Uncle Qiao, as I have said, I am young and I exercise a lot . Therefore, I will digest the food well . I am really hungry . I can have them just well . I will not have indigestion . ”
“You have eaten enough . ” Nan Nan did not eat as much as Shi Qing, yet she did not feel hungry .
The amount of food Shi Qing consumed all by herself was equivalent to two to three meals of Nan Nan's portion .
As a result, Qiao Dongliang would be very mindful of the amount of food Shi Qing had at his house . If she had too much and was way over her limit, he would stop her right away .
“Dad, do you know why those people crowded outside our house?” Qiao Nan helped Qiao Dongliang bring all the food that was piled outside into the house . As for the chicken, she would ask her father to slaughter it and prepare some chicken soup .
It was impossible to return the food that the parents left for her .
Instead of letting them go to waste, Qiao Nan decided to take it as a form of gratitude from her students .
“I heard that there was a monthly exam recently . I suppose the children had good results, so all the parents came looking for you . ” Qiao Dongliang sighed . Having an extremely capable daughter was also a headache .
Nobody would have expected that a student like Nan Nan would be able to teach the students well and help them improve their results . Hence, all of them gave money and food to Nan Nan, hoping that she would continue to tutor their children .
Qiao Dongliang fully realized the true meaning of the saying that knowledge could change one's fate .
As long as she had the knowledge and ability, even though Nan Nan was only a high school student, she was as good as grown-up men when it came to earning money .
While the children in other families only knew to spend the money earned by their parents, his child was able to earn money in a relatively easy way .
